h2. Pathfinding

h3. Goals

* Plan A - Grid based

* Plan B - Waypoints based
** Cached waypoint links

* A* based

* Cached nodes _(applies to both plans)_
** This means that most of map discovery or waypoint creation will be done offline

h2. Navigation

h3. Goals

* Steering behaviour

* Swimming
** Support getting out of water
** Float in the same place if until a path is found
** Eventually support navigation under water as long as the pathfinder supports it too

* Able to get out of lava, acid, etc
** Ideally it should request quickly a new path to the pathfinder, instead of improvising on the movement code

* Never, ever, get stuck in the same place. Wander around if there nothing better to do.

* Able to rocket-jump _(as a last resource measure, when they're thrown into space void)_

* Plan A - Waypoint based
** Avoid path congestion _(this happens when more than one bot on the same team are traveling over the same path)_

* Filter insanely quick movements (aka shaking)
